Media Server Client

A unified media streaming client library that supports both WebSocket and QUIC transport protocols.

Features

• Stream H264-encoded video frames to media servers
• Send audio frames alongside video
• Choose between WebSocket and QUIC transport protocols
• Simple, consistent API regardless of transport protocol
• Python bindings for cross-platform compatibility
• High-performance Rust implementation

Installation

From PyPI

pip install media-server-client

From Source

cd src/rust/modules/media-server-client
pip install maturin
maturin develop

Using the Build Script

The repository includes a build script that simplifies the build process:

# Build in development mode (default)
./build.sh

# Build in release mode
./build.sh --release

# Build and install locally
./build.sh --install

# Clean before building
./build.sh --clean

# Build in release mode, clean first, and install locally
./build.sh --release --clean --install

Usage

Python Example

from media_server_client import MediaStreamingClient

# Create a client with the desired transport (websocket or quic)
client = MediaStreamingClient(transport_type="websocket")  # or "quic"

# Connect to server
client.connect("localhost", 8080)

# Send video frames
with open("frame.h264", "rb") as f:
    frame_data = f.read()
    client.send_video_frame(
        frame_data,
        is_keyframe=True,
        width=1920,
        height=1080
    )

# Disconnect when done
client.disconnect()

See the examples/stream_example.py for a complete example that streams a video file to a media server.

Example Script

The repository includes an example script that demonstrates how to use the library to stream a video file:

# Using WebSocket transport (default)
python examples/stream_example.py --host localhost --port 8080

# Using QUIC transport
python examples/stream_example.py --host localhost --port 8080 --transport quic

# Custom video file
python examples/stream_example.py --video path/to/video.mp4

# Control streaming frame rate
python examples/stream_example.py --fps 30
